beat coach couple defense defensive game guys hat licking ray rest tip willie
We're beat up and fatigued and there are some guys in Gainesville licking their chops. The guys on our defense are flat-out warriors. (Defensive tackle) Ray Gant would not come out of the game and probably should have a couple of times. You have to tip your hat to them and coach Willie Martinez and rest of our defensive coaches.
fall guy hoping learning roll struggling time variable
We're hoping by the time we roll around in the fall we could take that variable of 'How much does a guy really know?' out of it. If he is struggling with the learning of it, he is probably not going to play. If he understands it, now it is more of a competition.

ability ask guy looking people saw throw
When I'm looking for a quarterback, the first thing I look for is the ability to throw the football. That's something that most people take as a given, but it's something you've got to have. From the film I saw on Matthew, he makes every throw you can ask a guy to make.

We're just very thankful that it looks like he'll be back for the Auburn game and be able to finish his senior year the way we were hoping he could, ... In the meantime, we've got to find a way to win without him.
catch eight geared passes plays primary target throw toward
We're going to make him a primary target. Now, I don't know how many passes he's going to catch. We could make him the primary target 15 times a game, but we may only throw to him to eight times because he's covered, and he may only catch six. But we're going to have more pass plays than we've ever had geared toward him.

We decided to run that ball and try to live with it. We kept pounding, getting yards after contact, just grinding it out in a real physical way. That's great.
